Share to Stack Exchange#
Question#
You’ll need to reformulate your comments as a question. Is this so bad? You can fit almost any content you want to share into the question format.
Promote#
If you already have content on your own website, you are allowed to link to it from an SO answer; see What is the policy for linking to your own blog in your answers? - Meta Stack Overflow. In some cases this may be required e.g. if you want to share the output of significant computation.
SVGs#
Part of the reason that Wikipedia authors don’t post to SE is that we often want to be able to edit SVG files later; on SE you can only post PNG files. As an alternative, include the name of .svg
file that you’re converting to PNG in the Markdown as an HTML comment i.e. <!--- filename.svg --->
. If you ever want to edit it more, you’ll have the name there.
Reputation#
A high score on different SE sites looks good on a resume (you should link all your social profiles on your website, including emphasizing which SE sites you are most active on). You’ll also reach more people; let them do the SEO for you.
